Honingcraft is proud to thank all those involved in supporting the "Pumping legs for water" initiative where a host of companies have generously sponsored funds in aid of purchasing water pumps for the elephants of the Hwange National Park. The drive included cycling through the Hwange National Game Park in which our very own CEO, Gerhard Hauptfleisch and his daughter Trischa participated.

In a spirited attempt to alleviate the suffering of the Elephant population in the Hwange National Park – Honingcraft is driving an initiative to get desperately needed pumps to Hwange that are required to pump subterranean water to the surface. Elephants require a HUGE amount of water on a daily basis , which is becoming increasingly scarce with the drought and subsequent lack of sufficient rainfall maintaining the watering holes.

The Honingcraft team pursued several means of getting its products and services to the international market, including the following:

International trade exhibitions:

Honingcraft exhibited its products at several trade shows in South Africa, Zambia, DRC, Zimbabwe, Argentina, USA and India, amongst others, with the support of South Africa’s Department of Trade and Industry.
